Kid and Pet
Safe
What Does That Mean to You?
In 2007, Mr. Sandless® was
contacted by the Children’s Hospital of
Philadelphia. This world renowned hospital
wanted all of the benches and handrails
throughout the hospital refinished. Before
work could commence, CHOP had to be sure
that the Mr. Sandless system was safe for
the many children that get the incredible
care they provide.
A team of health inspectors examined all of
the solutions and finishes used in our
system, read all of our technical data
including the MSDS sheets, and watched us
perform a sample of our unique service. We
were deemed “safe for hospital use”
and were able to perform our service on all
levels of the hospital. The only safety
feature used was caution tape! We even
worked outside the operating room while
delicate brain surgery was being performed.
Mr. Sandless refinished all of the woodwork
with not a single incident or disruption!
In 2012, five years later, Mr. Sandless is
back servicing Children’s Hospital. Once
again, solutions used in our service were
inspected, and once again, we were deemed
safe for hospital use!
Your health and safety and the health and
safety of your family and pets should come
as the top priority when considering wood
floor refinishing. Choose wisely!
Certified Green Finishes
What
Does That Mean to You?
A finish is judged on its “VOC” rating. In
order to be considered “green” a finish must
have a VOC lower than 100. What is VOC? It
is the volatile organic compounds
that
are released into the air as the finish
dries and cures. Why is this important to
you? Some finishes continue to pour
compounds into the air as they cure for
days, weeks and even months. You could be
breathing in these compounds all during that
time.
Mr. Sandless finishes are under the VOC
rating of 100! Our finishes cure very
quickly so that you are not breathing in
harmful chemicals while the finish cures.
With nearly a decade of service to tens of
thousands of customers serviced, Mr.
Sandless® has never received a complaint in
company history of residual odor after our
service!

Mr. Sandless®—A Totally Green
System!
The EPA lists “sanding dust”
as carcinogenic, and in fact, dust from
sanding floors is a known human carcinogen.
There are so very many potential toxins in
wood dust from sanding that breathing in the
dust is dangerous. In California, the state
makes sanding companies post a warning that
dust from sanding can cause cancer. Mr.
Sandless hears from clients all the time who
say they sanded in the past and “are still
cleaning up the dust” not knowing that the
very dust they are cleaning up is dangerous
to them.
Many finishes that can be used in sand
refinishing have cancer causing ingredients.
On top of all this, there is a fire hazard
from traditional sanding. Just recently, a
home burned down due to simple sanding
refinishing.
Because Mr. Sandless® refinishes without
sanding, you are guaranteed a safe
refinishing for you, your family, your pets
and the environment. With the incredible
results we get, there is no better way to
refinish your floors! Give us a call today!
